Question 257945: Two angles are supplementary.If one angle measures 45 degrees less than twice the measure of its supplement, find the measure of each angle. Answer by Greenfinch(383) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call first angle y, then other angle is (180 - y)
y + 45 = 2(180 - y)
y + 45 = 360 - 2y
3y = 315
y = 105
So angles are 105 and 75
Check : y + 45 = 150 which is twice 75
